I wish Moyes had kept his trap shut about the three games in 6 days. (Our best side ever used to get the perfect excuse from Kendall before a ball was kicked when we played Luton or QPR with their plastic pitches, we always started those games beaten)
The players were given their excuse before these 3 games started. I don't believe they didn't try against Bolton, from what I saw we should have gotten something from the game. But Benfica and Spurs looked like we weren't arsed. For once I'm not disappointed to be out of the League cup, we have not got the squad to compete on all these fronts.
Just say we had gone out in the last round, we would have had a nice rest before the Villa game. Now we can have breaks between the next round of this competition, nor will we have to play a two legged semi final when our African players are missing.
We hadn't a bad side out last night, but listening to the commentary on 5 Live extra, we were off the pace. Hopefully now the bad run is out of the way and a good performance against Villa, and with players returning from injury, we could be a Phil Neville type tackle away from re-igniting the season. It was around this time last season when Neville upended Ronaldo and we went from strength to strength (not before a piss poor performance against Wigan, which I believe Moyes reaction to, got us going).
I don't see any advantage in sacking the manager, we are still bedding in new players, key players are returning from injury and will regain form in time.
This is the time for sticking together and if we were to win the Europa League, our league position will unfortunately suffer, but wouldn't it be worth it? It would take a total capitulation for us to be back regularly in the relegation places, but we won't be in this position for long. TQ thinks we'll never win again, stop panicking Tom please!
